Good choice BigF here’s hoping for the ‘Let’s celebrate’ rather than the ‘sour mix’ after the game.

I sez 81 vegan gummies with a wight including jar of 1.27 kg.

Thanks for stepping in to do the count BigF.

Afternoon everyone

Well the count has been done and the results are

Sweets - 129 ( the bottom left group has only 9 in it)
Weight - 705gms

From my paperwork it seems Bosscat is closest with 125 sweets, (5 points), and
Dawlishclaret with the weight of 700gms (5 points though it was so close I maybe think 10 points might be fair)

I think we should start a "winner stays on" rule for when we get a win.

(Maybe not in the Championship though, it could be a bit unfair!)

At least we have a good number of counters tarky these days ... when Steve resurrected this a few seasons ago, there was only him and me doing the counts most weeks. Meaning we couldn't score any points.

Even last season I think I did 10 or 11 counts out of 40ish ... This is the 1st season I have been out in front.

I see the one whinging that I am "Cheating" doesn't even take part ... ah well if it gives a little pleasure into his humdrum life 😉

39 point lead is pretty unassailable.

I'm planning a big count for the last game, which I may well come to regret, but even so the engraver is sitting at the table
